Fossils That Evolutionists Just can't Seem to Find

To Begin With

What is a Fossil?

A fossil is a part of an animal or a plant that has been dead a long time—usually thousands of years. It is preserved in rock formations in the earth's crust. In order for a plant or an animal to become a fossil, it must be buried almost immediately after it dies. For example, if there was a bird on the ground and a heap of sand suddenly fell on it causing it to die, the remains of this bird could have survived to the present day. Similarly, there is a resin of some trees that becomes fossilised by geological processes and is then called "amber". Sometimes this resin flowed over bugs, and the bugs died inside the resin. In this way, it solidified, and amber and bugs have been preserved without damage for millions of years until our time. Thus, we can learn about creatures that lived long ago. These remains of the creatures are called fossils. You can see some of these fossils in the following pages.

What Does "A Transitional Form" Fossil Mean?

The most important falsehood that evolutionists invent is the "transitional forms". In some evolutionist books, these are sometimes called "intermediate transitional forms".

As you know, evolutionists claim that creatures evolve from each other. They state that the first creature came about by chance. In time, that creature changed into another, and that other creature turned into another creature and so on. Let us illustrate this with an example: Evolutionists say that fish, for example, have come from a creature that resembles a starfish. This means that one day, due to mutation, a starfish lost one of its arms, and during the next millions of years it lost all of its arms except for some that started by themselves to develop into fins. Meanwhile and simultaneously, all the other changes that are necessary for a starfish to change into a fish took place. (It is impossible for something like this to happen but we are just putting together a scenario!). According to the tale of evolutionists, a starfish has to go through many phases to turn into a fish. If you look at the drawing below you will understand better just how absurd this claim is.

Fish

Imaginary transitional forms

Creatures that were passing phases between definite species are called transitional forms. Moreover, according to the theory of evolution, these creatures all ought to have had half-complete organs. Furthermore, there ought to have been many later transitional forms such as fish that turned into reptiles, as they suggest. These in-between species would have to have had half feet, half fins, half lungs and half gills. If these creatures had really existed then we should be able to find their remains, namely their fossils, but it is extremely interesting that so far we have been unable to find fossils of any of the transitional forms that evolutionists claim existed.

Millions of fish and starfish fossils have been found. However, not one fossil has yet been found of a transitional form—as in evolutionists' tall tale—that would show how starfish evolved into fish.

A 100-150 million-year-old starfish fossil

In the above pictures, you can see fish and starfish fossils along with pictures of how they look today. As you can see, neither of them has changed one bit. They are just as they were millions of years ago.

Can you see any difference between the two crabs?!

Fossils are scientific proof. This means that by looking at fossils, we can learn how creatures lived long ago. Fossils show us that: Creatures have not evolved from each other, but that they have all been formed at some instant without any feature missing and without defect, and they are no different from their like that are alive today. Allah created them all.

A Modern Crocodile And A 190 Million-Year-Old Crocodile Fossil

A Modern Ray Fish And A 75 Million-Year-Old Ray Fish Fossil

A Modern Shark And A 400 Million-Year-Old Shark Fossil

Modern Grasshoppers And A 40 Million-Year-Old Grasshopper Fossilised In Amber

A Modern Gecko And A 90-94 Million-Year-Old Gecko Fossilised In Amber

A Modern Frog And A 90-94 Million-Year-Old Frog Fossilised In Amber

You see fossils of some creatures on these pages. Next to them are pictures of the same creatures as they are today. As you can see, no changes have occurred in these creatures for millions of years. Today, they are still as on the first day Allah created them. None of them have evolved into other species.

A Modern Nautilus And A 450 Million-Year-Old Fossilised Nautilus

A Modern Tortoise And A 50 Million-Year-Old Tortoise Fossil

Evolutionists cannot explain how these creatures remained exactly the same for millions of years.
